Letters on business should lie addressed to the I'nlilUhers- Froin the Georgetown Metropolitr.il. THE POST OFFICE AND THE PItESS. We are not aware of any constitutional objection that could prevent the Post Master General's etlectiiij an arrangement such as is proposed in the following remarks; and we aro satisfied, and the experience of every one connected with tlio press in the country, will bear us out in tho ossortion, that its adoption would be one of the most important boons that could be conferred on it. The want of a ready and convenient means of remitting small sums by mail, causes frequent, and in fuct, in the aggregate, enormous losses to the proprietors ol our newspapers and periodicals throughout the year. The general suppression of the small note bills throughout the States, has, in many instances, caused the exclusion of low priced journals from sectiuns of the country where thoy onco were popular, and in all cases lias oporated very severoly against their extensivo diffusion in remoter districts, Before the suppression of these notes, heavy discounts, the frequent transmission of notes of broken banks, and forged paper, were all necessary and serious evils of their position, which thoso embarked in this branch of murcuntilo cntor- f rise had to contend with, but which wore still bettor han the present system of none nt all, which amounts to some oxtont to an entire prohibition of tin extensive portion of their business. Thore is not a newspaper of any note in tho country which liaa not its books crowded with hopeless dobls mall accounts, or balances of large ones which hnve been accumulated far less from a want uf inclination or honest purpose in the debtor, than from tho impossibility of transmitting by mail, the precise amount of their subscription. We arc sure we do nut exnr!;crnte in estimating the aggrcgato of such accounts throughout the United States, nt between two and thrco millions of dollars duo to the proprietors of the newspaper and periodical press, and for most part, beyond even tho hope of rccuvcry. This heavy loss falls upon a class, precisely of all others in tho community, the least nblo to benr it. The profession of an editor, is One incessnut and hnr-rassing in its toil, precarious, scanty, nnd unstable in its romunerntion. This vocation of all others, is more peculiarly lor tho public, and any method which would even slightly benefit their condition, by affording immediate facility of transmitting them their dues, would be a benefit of high value to tho country at large, and of the utmost importance to them, by giving a practical working and consequent socurity to the subscription system, which it has never yet enjoyed. All this could be rendily accomplished by a post office regulation giving each post master authority, to receive small sums, crediting them to tho United Htntes and giving the depositor an order payable on presenta tion at any required post otlico. A single cxumplo will suffice to explain the working of such a system, and the bcnclits which would result from it. The price of the weekly Globe ur Into ligen- cer is $2,50 per nnnuin; a farmer in the west wishes to have the Congressional nnd other news of the Metropolis, through ono of these papers, but he has no means ot sending tlio amount ul tne subscription ty mail if he order the paper without sending the money, the publisher hns but a choice of evils, cither not Id send the paper at all, tho wisest and most usually niloplctl course, or to scud it, trusting to tho slender dinners of tuture reimbursement, nnd thus risk Irs capitnl, upon the most unstable security known to trade. Hut tne suppositious system in operation: the furmor guts to his post ollice deposits the requirrd sum, nnd his or- iter lor the paper, is countersigned by another, to the postmaster at Washington, to pay the amount to the order of the editors. Tho sums thus trntiBuiissib'e might be limited to tho amount of the lowest note in circulation any all below ten dollars nnd were some such svstem introduced, efficient guurds ngainst frnud could be very readily and effectually devised. If we mistako not, some such plan for tho transmission uf small sums, is in opcrntion in England, and its introduction here, where the lines of mail communica tion are the binding cords of a vastly extended territory, and for the inosipart form the only means of access to large and remote sections of country, would be pro ductive ot incalculable advantages, not to editors alone, but to many other equally important interests. We mistake tho enterprising and energetic charac ter of tho present Postmaster Gonoral, as well as Ilia ucsiro to bench! Ins countrymen to tlio tullest extent of his power and facilities conferred on him by his situation, if he could not successfully establish and carry out some such plan. We are not odvocatca for conferring too much power upon public functionaries, but in such a ense as this, whore the only power could be wielded would bo that of doing good, we, and we may answer for all, would not enre how despotic miirlit bo tho swav. A public functionary, acting upon tho enlarged and liberal views which an anxiety to bcnclit Ins country must create, will not need the additional, but not less honorable stimulus of the merited popularity, with the press nt large, which would undoubtedly accruo from such an important measure to better its condition. We corlainly think, whether the remedial measure may como from Congress or tho Executive, that the Press of tho country is entitled to every facility the law can afford; and wa believe, moreover, that n united ofTort is only wanting on the part of its conductors, to obtain many essential public benefits of w hich they greatly feel the want. NEWSPAPER READERS. How endless is the variety of newspaper readers: and how hard it is to satisfy thoir wants. Mr. A be lieves he shall discontinue his paper, because it contains no political news nnd U is decidedly of opinion that the same sheet dabbles loo freely in tho political movements of tho day. C doesn't take it because it is all on onesido and D, whoso opinion it generally expresses, does not like it because it is not seveic enough upon the Administration. E thinks it does not pay due attention to fashionable literature and K cannot bear the flimsy notions of idle writers, (i will not aufler a paper to lie upon his table, which ventures an opinion in favor of slavery and II never patronizes one mat tacKS moral courage to expose the evils ol the day. I declares he docs not want a paper filled with the hodgo-podgo proceedings of Congress and the Legislature and J consider, ih.i pir tlio bent which gives the greatest quantity of such proceedings. K patronizes papers for the light nnd lively reading which they contain and L wonders that the press thu s not publish Dewey1! sermons, nnd such oilier 1 solid matter. M. will not even read a papor that does not expose the evils of sectarianism and N is decidedly of the opinion that the pulpit, and not the pros, should meddlo with religious dogmns. O likes to ri uil police reports and P, whose appetito is less morbid, would not have the papor in which these silly reports ore printed in his house Q likes anecdotes and It won't take a paper that publishes them. H says that murders and dreadful accidents ought not to be put in the papers and T comnlniiia that his miserable baiter snvo no account of that highway robbery last week. U save the type is too small end V thinks ft too large. W stops his paper because it contains nolhinr but adver tisements and all that X wants of it is to see what ia tor sale. Y will not take the puper unless it is left at his store before sunrise and declares ha will not pay for it if left ao early that it is stolen from his domi-cil before lit it up. And, last of all, coma the com plaints of some of the ladies, who declare l lie paper ia uninteresting, because it does not evory day contain a list of inarriugea iuat ns if it were possible for the printers to marry peoplo, whether tho parties will or not.

THE UNCALLED AVENGER. Tlio return of t io victorious Russian nrme which bnd conquered Poland, under the c nand of General lluvhovden, was attended with a circumstance which, it is true, has at all limes been usual in the train ol large armies, but which naturally took pi ice in a much greater extent in these high northern latitudes, where the hand ol man baa so imperfectly subdued tho original savngencBs of the soil. Whole drovea of famished bears and wolves followed tho troops on thir return to the south, to Iced on the chance prey ntl'.irdcd bv the carcasses of the nrtillery and baggago horses that Iropped down on the road. In consennence of this. tho province of Esthoiiia, to which several regiments directed tin ir march, was so overrun wilh tho minimis ns greatly to endanger the s afety of travelers. Ilcuci in a single circlo of government, no less thon forty persons uf different ngea wcro enumerated, who hail boon devoured during the winter by these rnvenous bensts. It became linzurdouu to ventoro alone and un armed into the uninhabited parts of tho country; no- vciiucirss, no r.suiuiiinn country womnn boiuiy undertook a journey to a distant relation, not only without any mnlo companion, but with three children, the ingest ol which was still nt the breast. A In'llt llgc, drawn liy one horse, received the little Imrtv: the way was narrow, but well beaten tho snow, iin eac h side, deep nnd impassable ; nnd to turn hack, umiiwui (lunger ot sticKiug lust, not to be thought ol. The first half of the journey was passed without accident. 1 lie road now ran nlung the skirts of u nine forest, when tho traveler suddenly perceived n suspi cious noise behind her. Casting back a look of nlarm, she saw u troop ol wolves trotting along the road, the nuinhcr ot which tier tears hindered her from estnnnt- tug. I o escape bv flight is her lir.t thought ; nnd with unsparing whip she urges into n gallop tho horse, which itself snail's the danger. Soon a cuuple of the strongest and most hungry of the bensls appear nt her side, and teem disposed to stop the way. 1 hough their intention seems to uo only in nttuck tne Wane, yet tho safety both of the mutber and of the children, depends on tho preservation of tho animal. The danger raises lit value; n teems entitled to claim lor lit preservation an extraordinary seen lice. As (he mariner throws overboard his richest irensures to nppease tho raging waves, so here una necessity reached n height at winch tho emotions of tho heart nre dumb before tho dark commands of instinct; the latter, alone, sutlers the unhappy woman to act in this distress. Shu soixet her second child, whose bodily inlirmilics have often made it in object of anxioua care, whoso cry even now offends her ear, and threatens to whet tlio appetite of the blood-thirsty monsters she tcizet it with nn involuntary motion, and before the mother it conscious of what she it doing, it it ensl out, and anough of the horrid talc! The last cry of tho victim still sounded in her ear, when ilia discovered that tho troop, which had remained sumo minutes behind, again closely piesscd on the sledgo. The anguish of hor soul increases, for niiaiii the murder brenthiuir forms nru nt her side. Pressing tho infant to her heaving bosom, sbo casts n look on her boy, four years old, who crowds closer and closer to her knee: " Hut dear mother. 1 um good, am I noli You will not throw lue tntotheanow, UKotht oawicr:" "And yet I and yet!" cried the wretched woman, in the wild tumult of despair, "thou nrt good, but God is merciful! Away!" The dreadful deed was dono! To escape the furies that raged within her, tho woman exerted herself, wilh powerless lush, to accrU-ruto tho gallop of the exhausted horse. Willi the thick and gloomy forest before and behind her, nnd the nearer nnd nearer trampling of her rnvenous pursuers, she nlniost sinks under her nnguish; only the recollection of the infant that she holds in her arms only tho desiro to save it. occupies her heart, nnd with difficulty enable) it to bear up. She did not venture to look behind her. All at onco, two rough paws are laid on her shoulders, and tho wide noon bloodv jaws of nn enormous wolf hang over her head. It is ine most ravonous boast ot the troop, which, having partly missed its leap at the Bledge, is dragged along with it, in vuin seeking with its hinder legs for a resting place, to enable it to get wholly upon the frail vehicle. Tho weight of the body of the monster draws the womnn backwards her arms riso with the child : half lorn from her, hulf abandoned! it becomes the prey of the ravenous beast, which hastily enrriea it off uiio uie lorest. exhausted, stunned, senseless, she drops the reins, nnd continues her journey, ignorant whether she is delivered from her pursuers. Meantime the forest grows thinner, and nn insulated farm house, to which a aide road leads, appears at a moderate distance The horse, left to itself, follows this now path: it enters tlirourrli an onnn onto- met ing nnd foaming, it stands still; and amidst a circle ofl persons who crowd round with good natural surprise, the unhappy woman rocovers from her stupofnetion, to throw herself wilh a loud scream of nnguish and horror, into the arms of the noarost human being, who appears to her ns a guardian ongel. All lenve their work the mistress of the house, tho kitchon; the thresher in the barn; the eldest son of the family, with Ins axe in his hand, the wood which he had jitat cleft to assist tho unforliinuto womnn; nnd, with a mixture of curiosity nnd pity, lo learn, by a hundred inquiries, the circumstance) of her singular appearance. Re-Ireshcd by whatever can be procured at the moment, the stranger gradually recovers tho power of speech, and ability to give an intelligible account of the dreadful Iriul which she has undergone. Tho insensibility with which fear and distress had steeled her heart, begins to disappear: but new terrors seize her tho dry eyo seeks in vain a tear she is on the brink of boundless misery. Km hor narrative had also excited conflicting feelings in the bosoms of her auditors; though pity, eotnmisoratioti, dismay, and abhorrence, imposed alike on nil tho same involuntary silence. Ono only, unable to command tho overpowering emotions of his heart, advanced before the rest it was the young man with tho axe his cheeks were pale with affright his wildly rolling eyes flashed ill-omened fire. " What!" ho exclaimed, "threa children thy own children! the innocent, tho imploring boy! tho infant, sickly suckling all cast out by tho mother to be devoured by tho wolves! Woman thou art unworthy to live!" And ot the same instant, the uplifted steel descends with resistless forco on tho scull of the wretched woman, who falls dead at his foot. Tho perpetrator then ci'm-ly wipes the blood off the murderous axe, and returns to his work. The dreadful tale speedily came to the knowledge of the magistrates, who caused the uncoiled avenger lo bo arrested and brought to trial. He was of course sentenced to the punishment ordained by the laws; but the aentenco still wnntcd tho sanction of the Emperor. Alexander, the splendor of whoso virtuesis only rendered moro conspicuous by tho throne, caused all the circuinalnneeaof this crime, so extraordinary in the motives in which it originated, to be reported lo him in the most careful ami detailed monncr. Hore, or no where, he thought himself called on lo exercise the gcdiike privilege of mercy, by commuting thesentence passed on the criminal, into a condemnation to Inlmr. not very severe; nnd he accordingly sent the young ninn to the fottress of Dunnmunde, at tho mouth of mo Dunn, in ino unit ol llign, there to be conlincd to I a bur during his majesty's pleasure.

When it Is considered what a vast amount of real property passed through the hands and ownership of ion. f intoy, not only in llois, hut many other counties of the State, including much of the very best quality of lands and town property, and how few of those there are out of which the widow cannot now lawfully claim to be endowed, It would scorn to be for the interest of those r onccrnt d to pay some attention to this notice. Much of this property lias been sold at shcrlhY and marshals' sales, and much more by instruments which cannot operate to debar tho widow of hor dower many of the deeds having but one witness, and many nono nt all, and scarcely a valid acknowledgement among the whole; and It may ha remarked that there Is no act of limitation in Ohio, nor never hns been any, to debar a widow of her dower, either for hack rents and profits, or present interest In the laud. Ifearly ap plication is mode to the subscriber, In Cliillkotbe, their clninn can be settled upon low end moderate terms; other wine I sbull feel bound to commence suits Indiscriminately In all cases where, in my judgment, a claim can be supported.

We are not aware of any constitutional objection that could prevent the Post Master General's etlectiiij an arrangement such as is proposed in the following remarks; and we aro satisfied, and the experience of every one connected with tlio press in the country, will bear us out in tho ossortion, that its adoption would be one of the most important boons that could be conferred on it. The want of a ready and convenient means of remitting small sums by mail, causes frequent, and in fuct, in the aggregate, enormous losses to the proprietors ol our newspapers and periodicals throughout the year. The general suppression of the small note bills throughout the States, has, in many instances, caused the exclusion of low priced journals from sectiuns of the country where thoy onco were popular, and in all cases lias oporated very severoly against their extensivo diffusion in remoter districts, Before the suppression of these notes, heavy discounts, the frequent transmission of notes of broken banks, and forged paper, were all necessary and serious evils of their position, which thoso embarked in this branch of murcuntilo cntor- f rise had to contend with, but which wore still bettor han the present system of none nt all, which amounts to some oxtont to an entire prohibition of tin extensive portion of their business. Thore is not a newspaper of any note in tho country which liaa not its books crowded with hopeless dobls mall accounts, or balances of large ones which hnve been accumulated far less from a want uf inclination or honest purpose in the debtor, than from tho impossibility of transmitting by mail, the precise amount of their subscription. We arc sure we do nut exnr!;crnte in estimating the aggrcgato of such accounts throughout the United States, nt between two and thrco millions of dollars duo to the proprietors of the newspaper and periodical press, and for most part, beyond even tho hope of rccuvcry. This heavy loss falls upon a class, precisely of all others in tho community, the least nblo to benr it. The profession of an editor, is One incessnut and hnr-rassing in its toil, precarious, scanty, nnd unstable in its romunerntion. This vocation of all others, is more peculiarly lor tho public, and any method which would even slightly benefit their condition, by affording immediate facility of transmitting them their dues, would be a benefit of high value to tho country at large, and of the utmost importance to them, by giving a practical working and consequent socurity to the subscription system, which it has never yet enjoyed. All this could be rendily accomplished by a post office regulation giving each post master authority, to receive small sums, crediting them to tho United Htntes and giving the depositor an order payable on presenta tion at any required post otlico. A single cxumplo will suffice to explain the working of such a system, and the bcnclits which would result from it. The price of the weekly Globe ur Into ligen- cer is $2,50 per nnnuin; a farmer in the west wishes to have the Congressional nnd other news of the Metropolis, through ono of these papers, but he has no means ot sending tlio amount ul tne subscription ty mail if he order the paper without sending the money, the publisher hns but a choice of evils, cither not Id send the paper at all, tho wisest and most usually niloplctl course, or to scud it, trusting to tho slender dinners of tuture reimbursement, nnd thus risk Irs capitnl, upon the most unstable security known to trade. Hut tne suppositious system in operation: the furmor guts to his post ollice deposits the requirrd sum, nnd his or- iter lor the paper, is countersigned by another, to the postmaster at Washington, to pay the amount to the order of the editors. Tho sums thus trntiBuiissib'e might be limited to tho amount of the lowest note in circulation any all below ten dollars nnd were some such svstem introduced, efficient guurds ngainst frnud could be very readily and effectually devised. If we mistako not, some such plan for tho transmission uf small sums, is in opcrntion in England, and its introduction here, where the lines of mail communica tion are the binding cords of a vastly extended territory, and for the inosipart form the only means of access to large and remote sections of country, would be pro ductive ot incalculable advantages, not to editors alone, but to many other equally important interests. We mistake tho enterprising and energetic charac ter of tho present Postmaster Gonoral, as well as Ilia ucsiro to bench! Ins countrymen to tlio tullest extent of his power and facilities conferred on him by his situation, if he could not successfully establish and carry out some such plan. We are not odvocatca for conferring too much power upon public functionaries, but in such a ense as this, whore the only power could be wielded would bo that of doing good, we, and we may answer for all, would not enre how despotic miirlit bo tho swav. A public functionary, acting upon tho enlarged and liberal views which an anxiety to bcnclit Ins country must create, will not need the additional, but not less honorable stimulus of the merited popularity, with the press nt large, which would undoubtedly accruo from such an important measure to better its condition. We corlainly think, whether the remedial measure may como from Congress or tho Executive, that the Press of tho country is entitled to every facility the law can afford; and wa believe, moreover, that n united ofTort is only wanting on the part of its conductors, to obtain many essential public benefits of w hich they greatly feel the want. NEWSPAPER READERS. How endless is the variety of newspaper readers: and how hard it is to satisfy thoir wants. Mr. A be lieves he shall discontinue his paper, because it contains no political news nnd U is decidedly of opinion that the same sheet dabbles loo freely in tho political movements of tho day. C doesn't take it because it is all on onesido and D, whoso opinion it generally expresses, does not like it because it is not seveic enough upon the Administration. E thinks it does not pay due attention to fashionable literature and K cannot bear the flimsy notions of idle writers, (i will not aufler a paper to lie upon his table, which ventures an opinion in favor of slavery and II never patronizes one mat tacKS moral courage to expose the evils ol the day.

THE UNCALLED AVENGER. Tlio return of t io victorious Russian nrme which bnd conquered Poland, under the c nand of General lluvhovden, was attended with a circumstance which, it is true, has at all limes been usual in the train ol large armies, but which naturally took pi ice in a much greater extent in these high northern latitudes, where the hand ol man baa so imperfectly subdued tho original savngencBs of the soil. Whole drovea of famished bears and wolves followed tho troops on thir return to the south, to Iced on the chance prey ntl'.irdcd bv the carcasses of the nrtillery and baggago horses that Iropped down on the road. In consennence of this. tho province of Esthoiiia, to which several regiments directed tin ir march, was so overrun wilh tho minimis ns greatly to endanger the s afety of travelers. Ilcuci in a single circlo of government, no less thon forty persons uf different ngea wcro enumerated, who hail boon devoured during the winter by these rnvenous bensts. It became linzurdouu to ventoro alone and un armed into the uninhabited parts of tho country; no- vciiucirss, no r.suiuiiinn country womnn boiuiy undertook a journey to a distant relation, not only without any mnlo companion, but with three children, the ingest ol which was still nt the breast. A In'llt llgc, drawn liy one horse, received the little Imrtv: the way was narrow, but well beaten tho snow, iin eac h side, deep nnd impassable ; nnd to turn hack, umiiwui (lunger ot sticKiug lust, not to be thought ol. The first half of the journey was passed without accident. 1 lie road now ran nlung the skirts of u nine forest, when tho traveler suddenly perceived n suspi cious noise behind her. Casting back a look of nlarm, she saw u troop ol wolves trotting along the road, the nuinhcr ot which tier tears hindered her from estnnnt- tug. I o escape bv flight is her lir.t thought ; nnd with unsparing whip she urges into n gallop tho horse, which itself snail's the danger. Soon a cuuple of the strongest and most hungry of the bensls appear nt her side, and teem disposed to stop the way. 1 hough their intention seems to uo only in nttuck tne Wane, yet tho safety both of the mutber and of the children, depends on tho preservation of tho animal. The danger raises lit value; n teems entitled to claim lor lit preservation an extraordinary seen lice. As (he mariner throws overboard his richest irensures to nppease tho raging waves, so here una necessity reached n height at winch tho emotions of tho heart nre dumb before tho dark commands of instinct; the latter, alone, sutlers the unhappy woman to act in this distress. Shu soixet her second child, whose bodily inlirmilics have often made it in object of anxioua care, whoso cry even now offends her ear, and threatens to whet tlio appetite of the blood-thirsty monsters she tcizet it with nn involuntary motion, and before the mother it conscious of what she it doing, it it ensl out, and anough of the horrid talc! The last cry of tho victim still sounded in her ear, when ilia discovered that tho troop, which had remained sumo minutes behind, again closely piesscd on the sledgo. The anguish of hor soul increases, for niiaiii the murder brenthiuir forms nru nt her side. Pressing tho infant to her heaving bosom, sbo casts n look on her boy, four years old, who crowds closer and closer to her knee: " Hut dear mother. 1 um good, am I noli You will not throw lue tntotheanow, UKotht oawicr:" "And yet I and yet!" cried the wretched woman, in the wild tumult of despair, "thou nrt good, but God is merciful! Away!" The dreadful deed was dono! To escape the furies that raged within her, tho woman exerted herself, wilh powerless lush, to accrU-ruto tho gallop of the exhausted horse. Willi the thick and gloomy forest before and behind her, nnd the nearer nnd nearer trampling of her rnvenous pursuers, she nlniost sinks under her nnguish; only the recollection of the infant that she holds in her arms only tho desiro to save it. occupies her heart, nnd with difficulty enable) it to bear up. She did not venture to look behind her. All at onco, two rough paws are laid on her shoulders, and tho wide noon bloodv jaws of nn enormous wolf hang over her head. It is ine most ravonous boast ot the troop, which, having partly missed its leap at the Bledge, is dragged along with it, in vuin seeking with its hinder legs for a resting place, to enable it to get wholly upon the frail vehicle. Tho weight of the body of the monster draws the womnn backwards her arms riso with the child : half lorn from her, hulf abandoned! it becomes the prey of the ravenous beast, which hastily enrriea it off uiio uie lorest. exhausted, stunned, senseless, she drops the reins, nnd continues her journey, ignorant whether she is delivered from her pursuers. Meantime the forest grows thinner, and nn insulated farm house, to which a aide road leads, appears at a moderate distance The horse, left to itself, follows this now path: it enters tlirourrli an onnn onto- met ing nnd foaming, it stands still; and amidst a circle ofl persons who crowd round with good natural surprise, the unhappy woman rocovers from her stupofnetion, to throw herself wilh a loud scream of nnguish and horror, into the arms of the noarost human being, who appears to her ns a guardian ongel. All lenve their work the mistress of the house, tho kitchon; the thresher in the barn; the eldest son of the family, with Ins axe in his hand, the wood which he had jitat cleft to assist tho unforliinuto womnn; nnd, with a mixture of curiosity nnd pity, lo learn, by a hundred inquiries, the circumstance) of her singular appearance. Re-Ireshcd by whatever can be procured at the moment, the stranger gradually recovers tho power of speech, and ability to give an intelligible account of the dreadful Iriul which she has undergone. Tho insensibility with which fear and distress had steeled her heart, begins to disappear: but new terrors seize her tho dry eyo seeks in vain a tear she is on the brink of boundless misery. Km hor narrative had also excited conflicting feelings in the bosoms of her auditors; though pity, eotnmisoratioti, dismay, and abhorrence, imposed alike on nil tho same involuntary silence. Ono only, unable to command tho overpowering emotions of his heart, advanced before the rest it was the young man with tho axe his cheeks were pale with affright his wildly rolling eyes flashed ill-omened fire. " What!" ho exclaimed, "threa children thy own children! the innocent, tho imploring boy! tho infant, sickly suckling all cast out by tho mother to be devoured by tho wolves! Woman thou art unworthy to live!" And ot the same instant, the uplifted steel descends with resistless forco on tho scull of the wretched woman, who falls dead at his foot. Tho perpetrator then ci'm-ly wipes the blood off the murderous axe, and returns to his work. The dreadful tale speedily came to the knowledge of the magistrates, who caused the uncoiled avenger lo bo arrested and brought to trial. He was of course sentenced to the punishment ordained by the laws; but the aentenco still wnntcd tho sanction of the Emperor. Alexander, the splendor of whoso virtuesis only rendered moro conspicuous by tho throne, caused all the circuinalnneeaof this crime, so extraordinary in the motives in which it originated, to be reported lo him in the most careful ami detailed monncr. Hore, or no where, he thought himself called on lo exercise the gcdiike privilege of mercy, by commuting thesentence passed on the criminal, into a condemnation to Inlmr. not very severe; nnd he accordingly sent the young ninn to the fottress of Dunnmunde, at tho mouth of mo Dunn, in ino unit ol llign, there to be conlincd to I a bur during his majesty's pleasure.

Much of this property lias been sold at shcrlhY and marshals' sales, and much more by instruments which cannot operate to debar tho widow of hor dower many of the deeds having but one witness, and many nono nt all, and scarcely a valid acknowledgement among the whole; and It may ha remarked that there Is no act of limitation in Ohio, nor never hns been any, to debar a widow of her dower, either for hack rents and profits, or present interest In the laud. Ifearly ap plication is mode to the subscriber, In Cliillkotbe, their clninn can be settled upon low end moderate terms; other wine I sbull feel bound to commence suits Indiscriminately In all cases where, in my judgment, a claim can be supported.
